The collegiate church of Saint-Martin in Colmar is the second largest Gothic building in Alsace after the cathedral in Strasbourg. Built between 1240 and 1365, the church was for a long time home to the “Virgin with the Rose Bush” – an altarpiece on wood painted in 1473 by the Colmar artist Martin Schongauer – which is now in the Dominican Church in Colmar. The buttresses of the choir of the Saint Martin’ collegiate church were decorated with several stone statues (the king, the queen and the prophets). They are now on display in the Unterlinden Museum, in a room specially dedicated to the collegiate church.
